lUP 


Location  — lUP,  the  largest  state-owned  university  in  Pennsylvania's 
State  System  of  Higher  Education,  is  located  in  Indiana,  Pennsylvania,  a 
community  of  26,000  about  55  miles  northeast  of  Pittsburgh  and  30  miles 
north  of  Johnstown.  Situated  in  the  Allegheny  foothills,  Indiana  has  a 
moderate  climate  conducive  to  study  the  year  round  and  a  wide  variety  of 
historical,  cultural,  and  recreational  facilities  both  immediately  at  hand  and 
in  neighboring  population  centers. 

Library  — The  University  Library  Complex  (Patrick  J.  Stapleton,  Jr. 
Library  and  Rhodes  R.  Stabley  Library)  provides  excellent  facilities  for 
graduate  work  with  librarians  readily  available  for  assisting  with  specialized 
reference  work.  The  Library  is  an  officially  designated  Federal  Depository. 
The  holdings  in  Patrick  J.  Stapleton,  Jr.  Library  include  over  575,000  volumes 
of  books,  1 ,700,000  units  of  microform,  4,000  indexed  periodical  subscrip- 
tions, and  the  government  documents  collection.

The  Rhodes  R.  Stabley  Library  houses  50,000  units  of  media  material 
and  software  together  with  facilities  for  listening  and  viewing.  These  ser- 
vices consist  of  the  development  of  instructional  systems  such  as  student 
response,  and  personal  self-instructional  materials.  In  addition,  the  services 
provide  photographic,  sound  recording  and  reproduction,  design  and  pro- 
duction of  conventional  instructional  materials:  procurement,  inventory,  and 
maintenance  of  University  multi-media  equipment;  developing  and  main- 
taining a  16mm  film  library. 

Graduate  students  and  faculty  conducting  research  may  apply  for  inter-

12— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


The  Computer  Center— The  Computer  Center,  established  in  July, 
1963,  provides  connputational  support  for  undergraduate  and  graduate 
courses,  faculty  and  student  research,  and  the  administrative  requirements 
of  the  University.  The  computing  capacity  of  the  Center  is  provided  by  a 
large-scale  disk  oriented  central  processor  which  supports  both  time-sharing 
and  batch  processing  services  for  the  university  community.  Typewriter 
terminals,  located  both  in  the  Computer  Center  and  in  various  locations  on 
campus,  permit  the  use  of  the  computer  on  a  time-sharing  basis.  Key- 
punching facilities  and  a  full  complement  of  tabulating  equipment  are 
available  in  the  Computer  Center  for  student  use.  Remote  job  entry  stations 
are  located  in  the  Computer  Science  Department  and  the  College  of 
Business,  along  with  a  large  number  of  time-sharing  terminals.  Aid  in  the 
use  of  the  computer  and  facilities  may  be  obtained  from  user  assistants  on 
duty  at  the  Computer  Center,  and  from  the  Center's  professional  staff. 

lUP's  Computer  Center  plays  an  active  part  in  the  daily  functioning  of 
the  University.  It  is  the  principal  laboratory  facility  for  computer-oriented 
courses  and  is  used  as  a  teaching  aid  in  many  classes  involving  statistical 
and  numberical  analyses  and  computer  simulations.  In  addition,  over  80 
organizations  outside  the  University  make  extensive  use  of  lUP's  computing 
facilities.  The  staff  at  the  Center  is  actively  involved  in  continuing  work  aimed 
at  making  computers  a  more  effective  and  readily  accessible  tool  for  both 
the  academic  and  administrative  segments  of  the  university  community. 

Testing  Services— Testing  programs  at  lUP  are  administered  through 
the  Academic  Services  and  Testing  Center.  Among  the  national  testing  pro- 
grams offered,  the  following  are  of  particular  interest  to  potential  graduate 
students. 

The  Graduate  Record  Examination  (GRE)  is  administered  on  nationally- 
established  dates  five  times  each  year.  In  the  Saturday  morning  sessions 
the  general  examinations  (formerly  called  aptitude  examinations)  are  offered; 
the  advanced  examinations  (specializations)  are  offered  in  the  afternoon  ses- 
sions. Information  and  registration  booklets  are  available  from  the  Graduate 
School  or  from  the  Testing  Center.  Registration  forms  must  be  sent  directly 
to  ETS  in  Princeton,  New  Jersey. 

The  Miller  Analogies  Test  (MAT)  is  administered  by  the  Testing  Center 
on  a  frequent  schedule  — usually  monthly  on  a  weekday  afternoon.  To 
register,  contact  the  Testing  Center  (412-357-3050).  All  Graduate  School 
applicants  with  a  GPA  of  below  2.6  must  take  the  MAT. 

The  Graduate  Management  Admission  Test  (GMAT)  is  administered 
on  nationally-established  dates.  lUP  is  a  regular  center  for  some  dates  and 
can  be  a  special  center  for  other  dates  if  15  registrations  are  submitted  to 
the  Testing  Center  before  the  "special  requests"  deadline.  Registrations  for 
regular  center  dates,  as  listed  in  the  GMAT  booklet,  are  submitted  directly 
to  ETS.  Information-registration  booklets  are  available  from  the  College  of

THE  GRADUATE  SCHOOL  AT  lUP 


GENERAL  INFORMATION 

Graduate  work  was  inaugurated  at  lUP  in  September,  1957. 

Master  of  Arts,  Master  of  Science,  Master  of  Business  Adnninistration, 
Master  of  Education,  Doctor  of  Education,  Doctor  of  Philosophy,  and  Doc- 
tor of  Psychology  degrees  are  currently  available.  Non-degree  programs 
leading  to  certification  in  various  teaching  and  school  service  fields  are  also 
available. 

In  all  graduate  programs  the  objectives  are  (1)  to  encourage  excellence 
and  scholarship,  (2)  to  provide  depth  in  the  student's  special  field,  and  (3) 
to  stimulate  enthusiasm  for  continued  cultural  and  professional  growth  on 
the  part  of  the  student. 

The  Graduate  School  staff  is  assisted  in  its  daily  functioning  by  a)  the 
Graduate  Committee,  a  standing  committee  of  the  University  Senate 
concerned  with  graduate  program  curricular  and  policy  matters;  b)  the 
Graduate  Student  Assembly,  an  elected  graduate  student  body  represen- 
tative of  all  campus  acaden'  c  departments  offering  graduate  programs,  and 
c)  the  chairpersons  and  grtiduate  studies  coordinators  of  departments  of- 
fering graduate  course  work. 

In  addition  to  the  degree  and  certification  programs  referred  to  above, 
lUP's  Graduate  School  also  maintains  liaison  with  other  graduate  institu- 
tions in  Pennsylvania.  Students  should  contact  The  Graduate  School  for  ad- 
ditional information.

ADMISSION 


Admission  to  The  Graduate  School  is  required  of  all  students  who  wish 
to  take  graduate  courses  for  graduate  credit.  Each  student  applying  for  ad- 
mission, either  as  an  applicant  for  a  graduate  degree  program  or  as  an  ap- 
plicant for  a  non-degree  program,  must  file  with  The  Graduate  School  an 
application  for  admission  and  such  other  supporting  documents  as  the  school 
may  specify.  An  Admissions  Packet  is  supplied  by  the  Graduate  Office  upon 
request.  As  a  general  rule  application  materials  must  be  on  file  in  the 
Graduate  Office  at  least  one  month  prior  to  the  beginning  of  the  semester 
or  term  in  which  the  applicant  plans  to  begin  graduate  work.  Some  excep- 
tions to  these  deadlines  exist;  please  refer  to  the  Graduate  Calendar  on  the 
opening  pages  of  this  catalog  for  specific  program  dates. 

Requirements  for  Admission 

1 .  An  applicant  must  have  a  bachelor's  degree  from  a  college  or  univer- 
sity accredited  by  the  Middle  States  Association  of  Colleges  and 
Secondary  Schools  or  an  equivalent  regional  accrediting  agency. 

2.  The  applicant's  undergraduate  transcript  (or  transcripts  collectively) 
must  show  a  minimum  cumulative  quality  point  average  of  2.6  on 
a  4.0  maximum  scale.  Occasionally,  additional  evidence  of  academic 
ability  is  required. 

3.  Graduate  Record  Examination  (GRE)  scores  must  be  submitted  prior 
to  admission  or  during  the  student's  first  semester  of  course  work 
by  all  students  except  MBA  and  M.S.  in  Business  program  applicants; 
the  latter  must  submit  General  Management  Admission  Test  (GMAT) 
scores.  (These  tests  are  described  in  detail  earlier  in  this  catalog.) 

4.  Most  applicants  requesting  admission  to  programs  leading  to  an  MEd 
degree  are  required  to  have  a  Provisional  Pennsylvania  Teachers 
Certificate  or  its  equivalent;  all  MEd  degree  applicants  should  be  sure 
to  inquire  at  their  program's  sponsoring  department.  MEd  applicants 
who  do  not  already  have  such  certification  where  required  must  com- 
plete a  planned  program  leading  to  certification  prior  to  applying  for 
MEd  degree  candidacy  at  lUP. 

Graduate  School  admission  means  that  students  may  program  and 
register  for  graduate  courses.  Admission  does  not  guarantee  subsequent 
admission  to  candidacy  for  a  degree,  nor  does  it  guarantee  successful  com- 
pletion of  requirements  for  a  degree. 

Admission  Procedures 

1.  Each  applicant  must  file  with  the  Dean  of  The  Graduate  School  a 
completed  application  form.  Applications  along  with  forms  pertain- 
ing to  items  2  and  3  below  are  included  in  the  Admission's  Packet. 
The  Admission's  Packet  sent  to  Doctor  of  Psychology  applicants  dif- 
fers somewhat  from  the  regular  packet,  especially  regarding  item 
3  below. 


The  Graduate  School  —17 


2.  The  application  must  be  accompanied  by  one  copy  of  an  official 
transcript  from  each  graduate  and  undergraduate  institution  attended,

two  of  the  individuals  must  be  persons  familiar  with  the  applicant's 
academic  background.

accompany  the  application.  Please  pay  by  check  and  make  check 
payable  to:  lUP. 

Admission  Classifications 

Applicants  for  admission  to  The  Graduate  School  are  notified  of  their 
admission  status  by  The  Graduate  School  Dean  prior  to  the  beginning  of 
the  term  of  planned  study.  Admission  classifications  are  as  follows: 

1 .  Pre-Candidacy  Status.  Given  to  an  applicant  who  plans  to  work 
toward  a  graduate  degree  and  whose  application  file  with  The 
Graduate  School  is  both  complete  and  satisfactory.  The  pre- 
candidacy  student  may  program,  under  departmental  guidance,  6 
to  12  graduate  hours  toward  the  degree  being  sought.  Pre-Candidacy 
Status  does  not  guarantee  subsequent  admission  to  candidacy. 

2.  Special  Graduate  Standing.  Granted  to  applicants  who  indicate  they 
do  not  plan  to  work  toward  a  graduate  degree  but  who  wish  to  take 
graduate  courses  for  which  they  are  qualified.  Applicants  granted 
this  standing  who  later  wish  to  work  toward  a  graduate  degree  must 
request  reclassification  by  The  Graduate  School.  Credits  earned  by 
a  student  having  Special  Graduate  Standing  may  be  applied  to  an 
lUP  degree  after  the  reclassified  student  has  been  awarded  degree 
candidacy,  provided  the  credits  are  deemed  appropriate  to  the  degree 
by  the  program's  sponsoring  department. 

3.  Admission  Denied.  Applicants  denied  admission  to  The  Graduate 
School  will  receive  a  letter  from  the  Graduate  Dean  indicating  the 
reason  for  the  denial. 

Graduate  Record  and  Other  Examinations 

All  graduate  school  applicants  must  take  the  GENERAL  (formerly  called 
the  Aptitude  section)  section  of  the  Graduate  Record  Examination.  The 


18- Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


following  departments  require  that  the  Examination's  ADVANCED  section 
must  also  be  taken  for  the  degree  or  certification  programs  indicated: 

Biology  (MS  and  MEd) 

Educational  Psychology  (MEd  and  School  Psychology  programs) 

Elementary  Education  (EdD) 

English  (PhD) 

Foreign  Languages  (German,  MEd;  Spanish,  MA  and  MEd) 

Music  (MA,  MEd) 

Psychology  (MA,  Psy.D.) 

Under  certain  conditions  lUP  applicants  may  be  required  to  submit  MAT 
(Miller  Analogies  Test)  scores.  Both  Graduate  Record  and  Miller  Analogies 
examinations  are  administered  by  lUP's  Testing  Center;  specific  informa- 
tion about  test  availability  can  be  obtained  from  the  Center's  director.  Ap- 
plicants taking  such  examinations,  whether  at  lUP  or  elsewhere,  should 
request  that  their  scores  be  sent  to:  Dean,  The  Graduate  School,  lUP, 
Indiana,  PA  15705. 

Foreign  Student  Applicants 

In  addition  to  following  the  general  procedures  for  admission  to  The 
Graduate  School,  foreign  students  must  present  evidence  of  fluency  in 
English.  Applicants  whose  native  language  is  not  English  are  required  to 
take  the  Test  of  English  as  a  Foreign  Language  (TOEFL)*.  The  Graduate 
School  will  not  process  applications  from  such  students  until  satisfactory 
TOEFL  scores  are  filed  with  the  Dean  of  The  Graduate  School. 

TOEFL  scores  are  only  one  of  several  criteria  considered  for  the  ad- 
mission of  foreign  students  to  the  Graduate  School  at  lUP.  However,  as  a 
broad  indicator,  applicants  should  be  aware  of  the  Council  of  Graduate 
Schools'  finding  that,  among  American  universities,  the  TOEFL  scores  most 
widely  expected  for  admission  are  500  and  above. 

Foreign  applicants  must  also  present  evidence  to  The  Graduate  School 
of  having  financial  resources  sufficient  to  meet  the  cost  of  living  in  Indiana, 
Pennsylvania;  the  cost  of  travel  to  and  from  the  student's  native  country, 
and  the  cost  of  graduate  education  at  lUP.  Such  evidence  should  be  sent 
directly  to:  Dean,  The  Graduate  School,  lUP,  Indiana,  Pennsylvania  1 5705, 
U.S.A.  The  Graduate  School  gives  notification  to  the  University's  Foreign 
Student  Adviser  of  foreign  student  applications  received;  the  Foreign  Stu- 
dent Adviser  mails  to  the  prospective  foreign  student  information  on  housing, 
arrival  dates,  and  other  general  information  about  the  University.  Applicants 
who  have  questions  about  legal  or  other  matters  such  as  the  issuance  of 
certificates  of  eligibility  (1-20)  and  the  like  should  address  those  questions 
directly  to:  lUP  Foreign  Student  Adviser,  lUP,  Indiana,  Pennsylvania  15705. 

Foreign  Student  Candidacy  Test— All  foreign  students  will  be  required 
to  take  the  GRE  if  they  have  studied  in  an  American  college  or  university. 
If  a  foreign  student  has  not  studied  in  an  American  college  or  university, 
the  test  required  for  candidacy  will  be  the  TOEFL.  Business  students  in  MBA 
or  MS  programs  must  take  the  GMAT  regardless  of  foreign  status.

PROGRAMMING  AND  REGISTRATION 

Advisement 

After  a  student  has  been  admitted  to  The  Graduate  School,  he/she 
should  consult  the  departnnent  chairperson  or  coordinator  of  graduate  studies 
in  his/her  intended  field  of  study  about  a  program  of  courses.  If  the  student 
is  a  special  graduate  student,  consultation  should  be  with  the  Dean  of  The 
Graduate  School.  Advisement  before  course  registration  is  required  of  all 
students  enrolling  for  graduate  classes  for  the  first  time.  In  addition,  many 
departments  feel  strongly  that  their  students  should  be  advised  well  before 
registration  for  each  semester  or  summer  term;  these  departments  are  iden- 
tified in  each  semester's  (or  summer  session's)  schedule  of  course  offer- 
ings. The  student  should  carefully  check  such  schedules  about  advisement 
responsibilities,  as  well  as  course  offerings,  before  registration. 

Pre-registration 

Prior  to  each  semester  or  summer  session  enrolled  graduate  students 
receive  schedules  and  pre-registration  materials  with  accompanying  instruc- 
tions from  The  Graduate  School.  Similar  material  is  sent  to  prospective  new 
students  in  response  to  their  inquiries.  The  student  should  return  all  com- 
pleted registration  forms  to  the  Graduate  Office  by  the  date  published  in 
the  graduate  schedule. 

Final  Registration 

After  the  student  has  returned  the  registration  materials  to  The  Graduate 
School,  he/she  will  receive  from  the  Business  Office  a  bill  for  tuition  and 
fees.  Bills  must  be  paid  before  the  student  attends  classes.  Arrangements 
for  housing  and  meals  when  necessary,  parking,  identification-card  receipt 
can  be  made  at  the  registration  location  for  "walk-in"  students.  Mail-registered 
students  should  make  such  arrangements  independently  with  offices 
involved. 

"Walk-in"  registration  is  usually  held  during  the  final  hours  of  registra- 
tion for  students  who  have  not  pre-registered.  Walk-in  students  may  en- 
counter lengthy  delays  in  their  registration  processing  and  other 
inconveniences.  It  is  unquestionably  to  the  student's  advantage  to  be  pro- 
cessed with  the  majority  pre-registration  group. 

APPLICANTS  FOR  SPECIALIST  OR 
SUPERVISORY  CERTIFICATION  PROGRAMS 

lUP  offers  specialist  or  supervisory  certificate  programs  in  Instructional 
Media  Specialist  (Communications  Media  Department),  Elementary  School 
Counselor,  Secondary  School  Counselor,  Supervisor  of  Guidance  Services, 
Supervisor  of  Pupil  Personnel  Services  (Counselor  Education  Department), 
School  Psychology  certification  (Educational  Psychology  Department), 
Reading  Specialist,  Reading  Supervisor  (Elementary  Education  Department), 
and  Supervisor  in  Special  Education  (Special  Education  and  Clinical  Ser- 
vices Department). 

Applicants  for  these  programs  should  follow  the  same  procedures  for 


20 -Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


admission,  programming,  and  registration  as  described  in  this  catalog  for 
special  programs  requirements.  However,  potential  applicants  should  check 
with  the  department  chair  or  graduate  coordinator  responsible  for  the 
specialized  program  in  order  to  gather  information  before  beginning  the 
admissions  process. 


FINANCIAL  AID 


The  Financial  Aid  Office,  located  at  308  Pratt  Hall,  offers  financial  in- 
formation and  counseling  to  all  students  attending  lUP.  The  types  of  finan- 
cial assistance  offered  by  the  Financial  Aid  Office  include  student 
employment,  loans,  and  scholarships.  In  most  cases  the  Pennsylvania  State 
Grant  Application  is  used  to  determine  eligibility  for  these  programs. 

In  order  to  be  considered  for  financial  aid  administered  through  the 
University,  a  Pennsylvania  State  Grant  Application  must  be  submitted  to 
Harrisburg,  Pennsylvania.  Students  attending  lUP  on  at  least  a  half-time 
basis  (5  credit  hours  or  more)  will  be  awarded  assistance  based  on  dem- 
onstrated financial  need.  To  be  eligible  for  continued  funding,  applicants 
must  remain  in  satisfactory  academic  standing  at  the  University  and  show 
continued  academic  progress. 

Payment  of  financial  aid  awards  is  done  on  a  semester  basis.  All  finan- 
cial aid,  with  the  exception  of  the  private  scholarships,  work-study,  and 
guaranteed  student  loans  are  credited  to  the  student's  bill  in  advance. 

The  cost  of  attending  lUP  and  the  University's  refund  policy  are  listed 
in  this  catalog.  Please  refer  to  the  index  for  further  information. 

Asslstantshlps 

lUP  offers  both  half-time  assistantships  (20  hours  per  week  of  assistant- 
ship  service)  and  quarter-time  assistantships  (10)  hours  per  week  of  assis- 
tantship  service)  to  full-time  graduate  students.  Duties  will  vary  somewhat 
from  assistant  to  assistant  and  may  include  assistance  with  teaching,  super- 
vised teaching,  research  or  assistance  with  research,  and  university  service 
activities.  Duties  are  under  the  supervision  of  a  graduate  faculty  member. 
Assistantships  are  looked  upon  as  an  encouragement  or  reward  for  academic 
excellence  rather  than  a  means  to  relieve  financial  need. 

Half-time  assistantships  carry  a  full  tuition  waiver  for  the  two  semesters 
of  the  assistantship  and  the  following  summer.  With  some  exceptions, 
quarter-time  assistantships  carry  one-half  tuition  waiver  for  the  two  semesters 
of  the  assistantship  and  a  six  semester  hour  waiver  for  the  following  summer. 

Since  stipends  for  assistantships  may  be  raised  from  year  to  year,  poten- 
tial applicants  should  check  with  The  Graduate  School  for  current  stipend 
levels. 

The  deadline  for  applying  for  a  September  assistantship  is  March  15 
of  the  same  calendar  year.  Applications  and  further  information  are  available 
at  The  Graduate  School. 

Scholarships 

Margaret  Flegal  Harte  Scholarships 

Two  $450  scholarships  are  awarded  yearly  to  needy  new  full-time 
graduate  students.  All  new  Graduate  School  applicants  except  for  those  who 


The  Graduate  School  -  21 


receive  other  lUP  scholarships  are  considered  for  the  Margaret  Flegal  Harte 
Scholarships  based  on  academic  records  and  financial  need.  No  applica- 
tion forms  for  the  scholarships  are  required;  the  Pennsylvania  State  Grant 
Application  submitted  to  Harrisburg,  Pennsylvania,  serves  as  the  need 
analysis  document  for  need  assessment. 

Employment  Programs 

A.  Federal  College  Work-Study  Program  (CWSP) 

The  College  Work-Study  Program  provides  an  opportunity  for  graduate 
students  to  earn  money  to  help  finance  educational  expenses.  Students 
may  be  employed  on  campus  for  up  to  20  hours  per  week  when  classes 
are  in  session  and  40  hours  per  week  during  vacation  periods.  Work-study 
jobs  not  only  help  to  defray  the  cost  of  education  but  can  add  valuable 
practical  experience  accompanying  the  student's  graduate  education. 
Eligibility  is  based  on  financial  need  as  determined  by  an  analysis  of  the 
Pennsylvania  State  Grant  Application  submitted  to  Harrisburg,  Penn- 
sylvania. The  form  is  available  in  the  Financial  Aid  Office. 

B.  State  University  Employment  Program  (UE) 

The  State  University  Employment  Program  also  provides  an  opportunity 
for  students  to  work  as  an  accompaniment  to  their  studies  program.  Max- 
imum UE  hours  are  20  hours  per  week  when  classes  are  in  session  and 
40  hours  per  week  during  vacation  periods.  No  application  is  necessary. 

C.  Special  Funded  Grant  Employment  opportunities  are  also  available  to 
graduate  students  from  time  to  time.  Interested  students  should  check 
with  the  Graduate  Office. 

Loan  Programs 

A.  Guaranteed  Student  Loan  (GSL) 

Applications  for  the  GSL,  known  in  Pennsylvania  as  the  PHEAA  Loan, 
are  obtained  from  private  leading  institutions  such  as  banks  and  credit 
unions  and  are  administered  in  conjunction  with  the  State  and  Federal 
Governments.  There  are  no  cancellation  privileges.  Up  to  $5,000  per 
academic  year  may  be  borrowed  with  a  total  limit  of  $1 5,000  for  graduate 
study  or  $25,000  for  graduate  and  undergraduate  years  combined.  For 
new  borrowers,  repayment  at  8%  simple  interest  per  year  starts  after  the 
six  month  grace  period.  Previous  borrowers  will  continue  at  the  same 
interest  rate  (7%,  8%,  or  9%)  and  the  same  grace  period  (six  or  nine 
months).  Minimum  monthly  repayment  is  $50.00. 

B.  Auxiliary  Loans  to  Assist  Students  (known  in  Pennsylvania  at  PLUS) 
Applications  for  the  PLUS  loan  are  obtained  from  participating  private 
lending  institutions  such  as  banks  and  credit  unions  and  are  administered 
in  conjunction  with  the  State  and  Federal  Governments.  There  are  no 
cancellation  privileges.  Up  to  $3,000  per  academic  year  may  be  borrowed 
by  approved  graduate  students  with  a  maximum  of  $1 5,000  for  graduate 
study. 

Repayment  at  12%  interest  per  year  starts  60  days  after  the  check  is 
issued.  Some  lenders  will  defer  payment  of  principal  until  graduate  study 
is  completed. 

C.  Family  Partnership  Loan  (FPL) 

To  assist  students  who  are  ineligible  for  GSL  or  who  receive  less  GSL 
than  had  been  requested,  PHEAA  has  established  the  Family  Partner- 


22— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


ship  Loan.  $10,000  maximum  may  be  borrowed  at  approximately  10% 
annual  interest.  Principal  repayments  may  be  deferred  until  completion 
of  graduate  study.  Interest  must  be  paid  quarterly. 
To  be  considered  for  the  Family  Partnership  Loan,  students  must  sub- 
mit a  GSL  application  and  receive  a  denial  or  less  than  requested.  PHEAA 
will  contact  the  student  automatically  with  details  of  the  FPL. 

Veterans 

lUP  is  approved  to  offer  training  under  the  various  G.I.  Bills.  Students 
who  are  entitled  to  training  under  one  of  these  bills  should  contact  the 
Veterans'  Counselor  immediately  after  being  accepted  for  admission  to  lUP 
in  order  to  secure  additional  instructions.  This  procedure  is  necessary  so 
veterans  may  be  included  on  the  monthly  payrolls.  The  Office  of  the  Vet- 
erans' Counselor  is  in  304  Pratt  Hall. 

INSURANCE 

lUP  provides  an  opportunity  for  full-time  graduate  students  to  purchase 
accident  and  illness  insurance.  Coverage  normally  begins  on  a  date  near 
the  end  of  August  and  ends  on  the  same  date  the  following  year.  However, 
shorter  coverages  are  available  based  on  the  date  a  graduate  student  enrolls 
at  lUP.  Since  the  range  of  items  covered  and  benefit  maximums  change 
from  time  to  time,  no  policy  details  can  be  listed  here.  For  further  details 
and/or  policy  purchases,  please  contact  the  Associate  Treasurer,  Admin- 
istrative Annex,  lUP,  Indiana,  PA  15705. 

Foreign  students  enrolled  at  lUP  must  purchase  the  insurance  described 
above  unless  they  can  demonstrate  that  they  already  have  comparable 
coverage. 

GENERAL  GRADUATE  SCHOOL  PROCEDURES 
AND  REGULATIONS 

The  graduate  student  is  expected  to  assume  full  responsibility  for 
knowing  graduate  program  procedures  and  regulations.  General  Graduate 
School  requirements  are  set  forth  in  this  catalog;  a  description  of  special 
departmental  degree  requirements  is  available  at  each  department  spon- 
soring the  specific  degree  or  certification  program.  Requests  for  exceptions 
to  policy  are  given  consideration  when  unique  circumstances  exist;  ques- 
tions concerning  the  proper  routing  of  such  requests  should  be  addressed 
to  the  Graduate  School  Dean.  In  addition  to  knowing  policy  and  procedure, 
all  admitted  graduate  students  should  also  be  familiar  with  the  document 
"Graduate  Student  Rights  and  Responsibilities,"  a  copy  of  which  can  be  ob- 
tained at  the  Graduate  Office. 

Program  Changes 

To  insure  their  quality  and  relevance,  graduate  programs  at  lUP  are 
subject  to  constant  review  and  change  by  duly  appointed  and  responsible 
University  groups.  Because  of  this,  the  University  recognizes  that  provision 
must  be  made  to  prevent  hardship  to  students  already  enrolled  in  programs 
if  changes  later  occur  in  specific  or  general  program  requirements.  Students 


The  Graduate  School  —  23 


affected  by  changes  in  programs,  policies  and  regulations  are  therefore 
given  the  option  of  following  those  requirements  in  effect  when  the  student 
was  first  admitted  to  the  program  or  those  in  effect  at  the  time  of  expected 
graduation.  The  student  cannot,  of  course,  combine  chosen  elements  of  the 
two.  Should  a  question  of  rule  interpretation  arise  with  respect  to  changes, 
the  student,  the  student's  adviser,  or  both  should  petition  The  Graduate 
School  Dean  for  a  decision  about  which  requirements  apply. 

Graduate  Student  Rights  and  Responsibilities 

upon  admission  to  The  Graduate  School,  the  student  assumes  re- 
sponsibility for  knowing  program  requirements  and  following  established 
procedures  in  relation  to  academic  advisement,  course  selection  and  reg- 
istering, the  payment  of  fees,  the  processing  of  withdrawals  from  class  (if 
any),  the  meeting  of  residency  requirements,  applying  for  degree  candidacy, 
and  applying  for  and  meeting  all  specific  requirements  for  graduation.  Con- 
versely, he/she  has  the  right  to  expect  that  all  program  requirements  will 
be  made  clear,  that  all  course  requirements— including  grading  criteria  and 
procedures- will  be  made  known  early  in  the  course,  and  that  course  grades 
will  represent  the  instructor's  professional  and  objective  evaluation  of  per- 
formance. He/she  has  the  right  to  instruction  which  encourages  the  free  and 
open  discussion  of  ideas,  and  which  respects  reasonable  student  needs  and 
aspirations.  It  is  the  student's  responsibility  to  contribute  to  that  classroom 
decorum  and  atmosphere  which  encourages  maximum  learning.  Finally,  the 
student  understands  that  a  departmental  evaluation  of  academic  progress 
and  professional  potential  will  be  filed  and  that  such  an  evaluation  is  available 
upon  request. 

The  Graduate  Student  Assembly 

Each  lUP  department  offering  a  graduate  program  is  required  to 
establish  a  graduate  studies  committee  and  is  urged,  but  not  required  to 
form  an  association  for  its  graduate  students.  On  a  University-wide  basis, 
the  Graduate  Student  Assembly  (GSA)  is  the  graduate  students'  organiza- 
tion. GSA  is  composed  of  two  elected  representatives  (and  frequently  an 
alternate)  elected  by  the  full-time  and  part-time  graduate  students  of  the 
department.  GSA  functions  to  serve  all  graduate  students  by  having  voting 
representation  on  the  Graduate  Council  and  in  the  University  Senate;  by 
having  the  right  to  review  Council  policies;  by  having  the  means  to  make 
recommendations  about  graduate  student  affairs  to  the  Council  and/or  to 
the  Graduate  Dean;  by  working  to  improve  the  social,  intellectual,  and  cultural 
life  of  graduate  students;  and  by  participating  in  the  judicial  procedure 
established  for  graduate  students. 

Academic  Good  Standing 

lUP  graduate  students  must  maintain  a  minimum  of  3.0  (B)  cumulative 
graduate  quality  point  average  to  be  in  good  standing  academically.  Students 
falling  below  good  standing  are  placed  on  probation  for  their  succeeding 
active  semester  or  summer;  probationary  continuance  beyond  one  semester 
or  summer  is  permitted  only  upon  receipt  of  special  authorization  to  this  ef- 
fect from  the  Graduate  Dean.  A  student  must  be  in  good  standing  to  be  ad- 
mitted to  degree  candidacy  and  to  graduate.

ACADEMIC  CREDITS  AND  STUDENT  STATUS 

Although  many  graduate  students  depend  upon  part-time  or  full-time 
employment  to  meet  expenses,  the  time  demands  for  such  employment  must 
not  be  permitted  to  curtail  academic  achievement.  lUP  Graduate  School 
facilities  are  offered  only  to  students  in  a  position  to  benefit  from  their 
graduate  experience. 

Students  may  regularly  schedule  a  full-time  academic  load  in  most 
graduate  programs.  Full-time  graduate  student  status  is  defined  as  9  to  15 
graduate  semester  hours  per  semester,  while  part-time  status  is  defined  as 
eight  or  fewer  semester  hours  per  semester.  Full-time  graduate  students 
should  not  hold  full-time  outside  employment.  Graduate  assistants  may  not 
register  for  more  than  12  total  hours  in  any  semester. 

WORKSHOPS  AND  OTHER  SPECIAL  CREDITS 

The  following  policy  governing  the  use  of  workshop  and  other  special- 
offering  credits  toward  graduate  degrees  was  passed  by  the  University 
Senate  on  May  8,  1979: 

The  individual  master's  degree  candidate  may  submit  for  credit  for  his 
degree  no  more  than  six  (6)  semester  hours  of  workshop  and  other 
special-credit  offerings  approved  by  the  department  offering  the  degree. 
Doctoral  candidates  may  submit  a  further  six  (6)  semester  hours  of  such 
work  beyond  the  master's  or  its  equivalent  if  approved  by  the  degree- 
granting  department.  Should  the  workshop(s)  or  special  credit  offering(s) 
later  become  a  catalog-listed  course  which  is  part  of  the  degree  pro- 
gram, while  the  student  is  still  working  toward  his/her  degree,  the  stu- 
dent may  request  of  the  department  a  retroactive  reclassification  of 
credits  so  earned  and  upon  approval  may  again  use  workshop  or  special 
offering  credits,  up  to  the  above  maximum,  toward  a  degree. 


The  Graduate  School  —  25 


RESIDENCY 


Master's  degree  candidates  may  satisfy  the  residency  requirements  by 
taking  all  credits  applicable  to  the  lUP  degree  (except  possibly  six  transfer 
credits-see  "Credit  Transfers."  Doctoral  candidates  have  the  following 
options:  completion  of  a  minimum  of  nine  graduate  credits  at  lUP  in  each 
of  at  least  two  consecutive  semesters;  completion  of  a  minimum  of  nine 
graduate  credits  at  lUP  for  at  least  one  semester  immediately  preceding 
or  following  a  summer  of  nine-hour  study;  completion  at  lUP  of  at  least  nine 
graduate  credits  in  each  of  two  consecutive  summers  plus  six  graduate 
credits  during  the  intervening  academic  year;  or  completion  of  1 2  graduate 
credits  at  lUP  in  each  of  two  consecutive  summers  (this  latter  is  recom- 
mended only  in  very  special  instances). 


DEGREE  CANDIDACY 


Part-time  graduate  students  must  apply  for  degree  candidacy  through 
their  Dean's  Office  immediately  following  completion  of  six  graduate  credit 
hours  taken  at  lUP.  Full-time  students  must  do  the  same  at  the  mid-term 
of  the  semester  or  summer  term  during  which  they  are  taking  their  1 2th  lUP 
graduate  hour.  The  appropriate  form  is  available  at  the  College  Dean's  Of- 
fice. Notification  of  candidacy  award  or  denial,  as  recommended  by  the  pro- 
gram's sponsoring  department,  will  be  received  from  the  Dean.  Receipt  of 
degree  candidacy  is  a  most  important  requirement  in  the  student's  progress 
toward  an  lUP  graduate  degree. 

Admission  to  Candidacy 

To  qualify  for  admission  to  candidacy,  the  student  must  complete  the 
following  steps: 

1 .  Submit  an  official  application  for  admission  to  candidacy  to  the  Col- 
lege Dean  (form  may  be  obtained  at  the  student's  College  Dean's 
Office). 

2.  Complete  with  satisfactory  grades  (see  description  of  Academic  Good 
Standing)  at  least  six  semester  hours  (part-time  students)  or  be  in 
the  process  of  completing  12  semester  hours  (full-time  students- 
see  first  paragraph  under  Degree  Candidacy)  of  graduate  work  at 
lUP. 

3.  Have  on  file  in  the  Graduate  Office  scores  from  the  Graduate  Record 
Examination,  or  for  MBA  and  MS  in  Business  students.  The  Graduate 
Management  Admission  Test. 

4.  Have  satisfied  the  research  course  requirement  (GR  615  Elements 
of  Research,  or  equivalent). 

5.  Have  on  file  in  the  College  Dean's  Office  a  tentative  program  of 
studies  for  completion  of  the  desired  degree  program. 

Degree  candidacy  is  awarded  by  the  dean's  office  only  upon  recom- 
mendation of  the  student's  academic  department.  The  student  will  be  notified 
in  writing  of  candidacy  decisions. 

Individual  departments  may  have  requirements  exceeding  the  minimum 
prescribed  by  The  Graduate  School.  Students  should  inquire  for  such  written 
requirements  at  the  degree-sponsoring  department.

GRADING  SYSTEM 


The  following  grades  are  used  in  reporting  the  standing  of  students  at 
the  end  of  each  semester  or  summer  term: 

A  — Excellent  I— Incomplete 

B  — Good  R  — Research  in  Progress 

C-Fair  W-Withdrawal 

F  — Failure 

No  "D"  grade  is  recognized  in  lUP  graduate  work. 

Quality  points  are  assigned  as  follows:  A  — 4;  B  — 3:  C  — 2.  No  quality 
points  are  carried  by  the  notations  of  F,  I,  R,  and  W. 

The  notation  'T'  is  used  to  record  work  which,  as  far  as  it  has  progressed, 
Is  of  passing  grade  but  is  incomplete  because  of  accident,  illness,  pregnancy, 
or  extreme  personal  disturbance.  The  "R"  notation  pertains  only  to  thesis 
and  dissertation  research  credits  when  such  research  is  in  progress  as  a 
semester  or  summer  terms  ends,  or  in  certain  practicum-type  courses  ap- 
proved for  this  notation  by  the  Graduate  Dean.  All  •'R's"  are  replaced  by  the 
research  grade  eventually  assigned  when  the  research  is  completed.  The 
"W"  notation  applies  to  certain  withdrawals  from  courses.  Withdrawals  from 
the  University  and  discrete  course  withdrawals  are  discussed  in  detail  in 
other  sections  of  this  catalog.  Note  that  an  "F"  is  entered  in  the  student's 
permanent  academic  record  if  a  withdrawal  of  either  type  has  not  been 
processed  in  accordance  with  established  procedures. 

Course  Auditing 

Auditing  is  not  permitted  in  a  graduate  course  unless  the  student  has 
been  admitted  to  The  Graduate  School,  has  received  permission  to  audit 
from  the  course's  instructor,  and  has  been  approved  for  course  enrollment 
by  the  Dean  of  The  Graduate  School.  Auditors  must  pay  normal  tuition  and 
related  fees.  An  auditor  will,  with  permission  from  the  instructor,  participate 
in  class  discussion,  do  practicum  work,  take  examinations,  and  share 
generally  in  the  privileges  of  a  class  member.  If  the  student  completes  all 
course  requirements  — but  only  if  so  — an  "Audit"  notation  is  posted  to  the 
student's  academic  record.  No  student  who  is  required  to  carry  a  certain 
number  of  credits  may  count  among  those  credits  the  credit  of  an  audited 
course. 

Class  Cancellation 

It  is  the  policy  of  The  Graduate  School  not  to  cancel  regularly  scheduled 
classes  because  of  weather  conditions,  nor  does  it  make  announcements 
via  radio,  newspaper,  or  through  its  switchboard  that  classes  are  being 
suspended  because  of  such  conditions.  In  cases  of  emergencies  disrupting 
transportation  facilities  or  otherwise  creating  hazardous  travel  conditions, 
students  should  make  those  decisions  as  to  attendance  which  appear 
appropriate  to  them  in  their  particular  circumstances. 

Graduate  Course  Numbering 

All  dual-level  courses,  open  to  enrollment  by  both  graduate  and  qualified 
undergraduate  students,  carry  a  500-599  course  number;  all  courses  open 
only  to  graduate  students  carry  600-series  and  above  numbers. 


The  Graduate  School  -27 


Dual  Level  Courses 

The  number  of  credits  attained  in  dual-level  courses  (500-599)  which 
shall  be  applicable  to  a  degree  program  for  any  student  shall  be  a  maximum 
of  50%  of  the  credits  required  for  that  degree.  Some  programs  may  call  for 
less  than  50%.  Students  should  check  this  requirement  with  their  advisors. 

Graduate  students  who  enroll  in  dual  level  courses  should  be  aware 
that  dual  level  courses  commonly  impose  greater  obligations  on  graduate 
students  than  on  undergraduate  students  taking  the  same  course.

Credit  Transfers 

Credit  for  graduate  courses  taken  at  another  institution  may  under  cer- 
tain circumstances  be  incorporated  as  part  of  the  graduate  student's  pro- 
gram at  lUP.  These  courses  must  have  been  completed  on  the  main  campus 
of  an  accredited  institution,  or  acceptable  in  its  degree  programs  by  that 
main  campus.  The  grade  earned  must  be  a  "B"  or  its  equivalent  or  better. 
The  time  limitation  rule  for  lUP  degrees  (cited  later  in  this  catalog)  pertains 
without  modification  to  transfer  credits. 

A  maximum  of  six  credits  of  transfer  work  may  be  accepted.  Transfer 
credits  are  not  necessarily  posted  to  the  student's  lUP  graduate  record  un- 
til the  student  has  been  admitted  to  degree  candidacy.  Acceptance  of  transfer 
credit  must  be  approved  by  the  candidate's  department  and  the  Dean. 
Students  wishing  to  transfer  back  to  lUP  credits  taken  at  another  institution 
while  enrolled  in  an  lUP  graduate  program  must  receive  advance  written 
authorization  for  credit  acceptance  from  the  College  Dean. 

Graduate  Course  Repeat  Policy 

Under  University  policy  no  graduate  credit  is  recognized  for  courses 
completed  with  grades  of  "F".  Graduate  grading  policy  does  not  permit  an 
award  of  "D".  A  student  receiving  a  "C"  or  "F"  grade  may  request  through 
his/her  adviser  or  coordinator  of  graduate  studies  approval  to  repeat  the 
course  to  a  maximum  of  two  repeats.  Each  such  repeat  must  receive  final 
approval  from  the  dean  of  the  student's  College. 

Semester  hours  for  repeated  courses  shall  be  counted  only  once  for 
all  attempts  made  and,  should  there  be  a  difference  in  hours  because  of 
a  course  hours  change,  the  hours  and  quality  points  earned  when  last  taken 
shall  be  those  used  for  quality  point  average  computation. 

Credits  earned  in  only  one  repeated  course  may  be  applied  to  an  lUP 
graduate  degree. 

Course  Overlaps  in  Degree  Programs 

Within  set  limits,  a  student  may  use  the  same  course  to  count  in  two 
different  master's  degree  programs,  if  the  course  is  acceptable  in  both  pro- 
grams. However,  the  number  of  overlap  credits  counted  toward  a  second 
master's  degree  will  be  limited  to  20%  of  the  credits  in  the  second  master's 
degree  program.  Exceptions  to  this  limit  may  be  made  by  the  Graduate  Dean 
in  consultation  with  the  appropriate  Department  Chair  and  College  Dean. 

Independent  Study  Maximum 

Only  six  credits  of  Independent  Study  work  may  apply  toward  a  graduate 
degree  unless  written  authorization  for  hours  in  excess  of  six  is  obtained 
from  the  student's  adviser  or  coordinator  of  graduate  studies  and  the  dean, 
in  that  order. 

Graduate  Internship  Policy 

To  qualify  for  a  graduate  internship  appointment  the  graduate  student 
must  have  a  minimum  of  12  lUP  graduate  credits  earned  and  a  minimum 
3.0  GPA;  must  have  been  in  full-time  enrollment  (nine  graduate  credits  or 


The  Graduate  School  -  29 


more)  during  the  semester  or  summer  sessions  (the  latter  taken  as  a 
whole)  immediately  preceding  the  academic  period  for  which  internship  is 
requested;*  and  must  meet  departmental  internship  criteria.  No  more  than 
six  internship  credits  may  apply  to  a  graduate  degree  unless  written  approval 
of  the  student's  departmental  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator 
and  the  dean  (in  that  order)  is  obtained.  Continuation  in  an  internship  ex- 
perience by  a  given  graduate  student  is  contingent  upon  the  student's 
maintenance  of  satisfactory  performance  in  all  aspects  of  his/her  degree 
program.  Programmatic  exceptions  to  the  foregoing  policy  can  be  made  only 
with  the  approval  of  the  Graduate  Council. 

*For  graduate  students  active  during  summers  only,  or  during  fall-spring 
semesters  only,  "immediately  preceding  the  academic  period"  etc.  refers 
to  the  student's  last  preceding  active  semester  or  summer  session. 

Final  Credits  Policy 

All  degree  candidates  must  complete  their  program's  final  six  credits 
of  graduate  work  in  courses  offered  by  lUP.  Under  certain  circumstances 
appropriate  substitutions  may  be  authorized.  Students  wishing  such 
authorization  must  petition  the  Dean  after  obtaining  the  approval  of  their 
adviser  and  department  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator. 

Discrete  Course  Withdrawal 

During  the  fall  and  spring  semesters,  graduate  students  may  request 
authorization  to  withdraw  from  a  graduate  course  without  prejudice  and  with 
the  grade  of  "W"  by  petitioning  the  Graduate  Dean  in  writing  within  the  first 
two-thirds  of  the  semester  as  determined  by  the  published  University  calen- 
dar. The  request  must  carry  the  endorsement  of  both  the  course  instructor 
and  the  student's  department  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator, 
in  that  order.  Graduate  students  wishing  to  withdraw  from  an  undergraduate 
course  within  the  prescribed  period  must  do  so  by  processing  the  standard 
undergraduate  Discrete  Course  Withdrawal  form. 

For  summer  term  classes  and  labs,  the  following  is  substituted  for  the 
above  in  the  preceding  paragraph;  for  the  Pre  and  Post  Sessions,  within 
the  first  six  class  days;  for  Main  Session,  within  the  first  twelve  class  days. 

Following  the  close  of  the  established  six  weeks  (or  6th  or  12th  day) 
withdrawal  period,  a  graduate  student  may  withdraw  from  a  course,  either 
graduate  or  undergraduate,  without  grade  penalty  only  with  the  written 
approval  of  his/her  department  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator 
and  the  Dean  (in  that  order)  for  such  reasons  as  accident,  severe  illness, 
or  extreme  personal  disturbance.  A  student  dropping  a  course  under  any 
other  circumstances  will  automatically  receive  an  "F"  at  the  end  of  the 
semester  or  summer  term. 

Withdrawals  from  the  University 

Graduate  students  withdrawing  from  the  University  for  any  reason  must 
process  such  withdrawals  in  writing  through  the  Office  of  the  Graduate  Dean. 
The  official  withdrawal  date  to  be  recognized  will  be  established  by  the  Dean. 

Please  refer  to  the  early  pages  of  this  catalog  for  detailed  description 
of  the  University's  Refund  Policy  and  related  matters. 

Official  notification  of  course  withdrawal  will  be  sent  by  the  Graduate 


30— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


Dean  to  the  students  course  instructor(s)  and  chairperson/graduate  studies 

coordinator. 

No  person  shall  be  considered  withdrawn  from  the  University  unless 
the  withdrawal  process  described  herein  has  been  employed. 

Graduate  Course  Scheduling  by 
Certain  Undergraduates 

lUP  undergraduate  students  with  an  academic  grade  point  average  of 
at  least  2.6  who  are  within  32  semester  hours  of  graduation  are  permitted 
after  appropriate  approvals,  to  take  up  to  six  semester  hours  of  graduate 
work  whether  or  not  they  have  applied  for  acceptance  into  an  lUP  graduate 
program.  Graduate  hours  so  earned  have  no  necessary  bearing  upon  the 
meeting  of  undergraduate  degree  requirements,  and  no  assurance  is  given 
or  implied  as  to  the  hours'  later  applicability  to  a  graduate  degree  should 
the  students  be  admitted  to  an  lUP  graduate  program. 

Time  Limitations 

Program  credits  earned  at  lUP  or  accepted  by  transfer  are  applicable 
to  lUP  master's  degrees  over  a  period  not  to  exceed  five  years  from  the  date 
of  their  earning  unless  the  period  is  extended  through  student  petition 
approved  by  the  program's  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator  and 
the  Graduate  Dean.  Doctoral  candidates  must  complete  degree  requirements

School  requirements  described  below.  Sponsoring  departments  may  have 
additional  requirements:  students  must  be  equally  familiar  with  departmen- 
tal requirements  since  these  are  equally  binding. 

Under  certain  circumstances  Graduate  School  requirements  for  the  Doc- 
toral degree  may  be  satisfied  by  means  of  substitution.  Requests  for  the 
acceptance  of  substitutions  should  be  made  in  the  form  of  a  petition  to  the 
Graduate  Dean,  the  petition  first  having  the  approval  of  the  student's  ad- 
viser and  department  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator. 

Credit  requirement  — A  minimum  of  60  graduate  semester  credits, 
exclusive  of  dissertation  credits,  must  be  earned  beyond  the  bachelor's 
degree  for  any  of  the  doctorates  offered  at  lUP. 

Transfer  credit  — Transfer  credit  is  limited  to  the  credit  equivalent  of 
a  recognized  master's  degree,  except  in  those  special  cases  recommended 
by  the  student's  department  chairperson  or  graduate  studies  coordinator 
and  approved  by  the  Graduate  Dean  and  up  to  12  graduate  credits  in  the 
use  of  program  specific  interinstitutional  agreements  approved  by  the 
Graduate  Dean.

dent's minimum  GPA  may  be  set  higher  than  the  foregoing  Graduate  School 
requirement  by  the  programs  sponsoring  department,  but  in  no  case  may 
it  be  lower.

Candidacy  Examination— The  candidacy  examination,  which  may  be 
written,  oral,  or  both,  as  determined  by  the  program's  sponsoring  depart- 
ment, and  which  may  serve  also  as  the  final  examination  for  the  master's 
degree  if  a  department  so  prescribes,  is  administered  by  the  department 
in  the  student's  field  of  specialization.  The  examination  may  not  be  taken 
until  the  student  has  completed  at  least  one  year  of  study  beyond  the 
bachelor's  degree.  Examination  scores  must  satisfy  the  student's  dissertation 
committee. 

The  Dissertation  Committee— The  candidate's  dissertation  commit- 
tee supervises  the  student's  degree  program  from  the  point  at  which  he/she 
is  admitted  to  doctoral  degree  candidacy  through  defense  of  the  disserta- 
tion. The  committee  approves  the  student's  plan  of  study;  arranges  for  the 
candidacy  examination;  arranges  for  the  comprehensive  examination;  and 
oversees  the  candidate's  general  supervision  related  to  research,  the  disser- 
tation, and  the  general  meeting  of  degree  requirements. 

The  Comprehensive  Examination— This  examination  is  given,  usually 
upon  the  candidate's  completion  of  course  work,  to  determine  the  student's 
stage  of  progress  in  the  degree  field  and  fields  related  to  it,  and  the  stu- 
dent's likelihood  of  success  in  his/her  research— dissertation  phase.  The 
examination  may  be  written,  oral,  or  both.  It  is  not  necessarily  limited  to  areas 
in  which  the  candidate  has  taken  course  work. 

Foreign  Language/Research  Tool  Options— Foreign  Language  and/or 
research  tool  requirements  for  doctoral  degrees  vary  from  program  to  pro- 
gram. In  most  cases,  programs  offer  options  for  meeting  these  requirements. 
Students  should  consult  with  the  department  sponsoring  the  degree  for 
specific  information  and  guidance  on  meeting  these  requirements. 

Research  Proposal  — After  the  candidate  has  passed  the  comprehen- 
sive examination  and  has  done  extensive  preliminary  proposal  research, 
he/she  must  present  and  defend  a  research  proposal  before  the  disserta- 
tion committee.  A  copy  of  the  proposal  must  be  placed  in  the  hands  of  all 
committee  members  at  least  two  weeks  in  advance  of  the  scheduled  meeting. 
The  proposal  must  be  found  satisfactory  by  all  members  of  the  committee 
before  the  candidate  may  proceed  with  the  dissertation. 

The  Dissertation— A  dissertation  is  required  of  all  doctoral  candidates. 
The  paper  must  demonstrate  the  candidate's  mastery  of  his/her  research 
and  reflect  the  results  of  an  original  investigation  in  the  principal  field  of  study. 
The  goal  should  be  to  make  a  definite  original  contribution  to  knowledge 
in  the  field.  The  notation  "R,"  to  indicate  research  in  progress,  is  made  in 
the  candidate's  academic  record. 

Dissertation  Review  Meeting— Upon  acceptance  of  the  dissertation 
by  the  candidate's  adviser,  the  candidate  must  follow  procedures  accept- 
able to  his/her  department  and  College  Dean  in  providing  copies  for  review 
by  the  dissertation  committee.  College  Dean  and  graduate  coordinator.  The 
candidate  shall  then  request  a  formal  meeting  of  the  dissertation  committee, 
at  a  time  convenient  to  all  members,  to  secure  dissertation  approval.  The 
dissertation  must  be  approved  in  writing  by  each  member  of  the  committee. 


The  Graduate  School  —  33 


Publication  of  the  Dissertation -Following  dissertation  approval  by 
the  committee,  three  copies  of  the  dissertation  and  two  copies  of  an  abstract 
must  be  submitted  to  the  College  Dean.  The  program's  sponsoring  depart- 
ment may  also  require  a  copy  for  its  archives. 

The  dissertation  must  be  microfilmed  according  to  the  plan  provided 
by  University  Microfilm,  Ann  Arbor,  Michigan.

any  part  of  the  comprehensive  examination,  or  any  of  the  examinations  in 
foreign  languages  and/or  computer  language,  may  request  re-examination 
not  earlier  than  one  semester  following  the  time  of  failure,  nor  later  than 
one  year  after  that  date.  No  student  is  permitted  a  third  examination  without 
a  recommendation  to  that  effect  from  the  degree  program's  sponsoring 
department  and  the  approval  of  the  Graduate  Council.

The  Thesis/No  Thesis  Option,  Master's  Programs 

Several  lUP  master's  degree  programs  offer  the  graduate  student  a 
thesis/no-thesis  option. 

When  the  no-thesis  option  is  chosen,  additional  approved  course  work- 
usually  six  or  more  credit  hours  — is  frequently  required. 

The  typical  committee  thesis  arrangement  (3-6  s.h.)  has  the  student 
working  with  a  committee  of  four  faculty  members  including  the  student's 
adviser  and  two  faculty  members,  one  of  whom  may  or  may  not  be  a  member 
of  the  program's  department.  The  committee  may  include  an  off-campus 
person  with  special  expertise  as  part  of  the  four  if  requested  by  the  depart- 
ment and  approved  by  the  Graduate  Dean.

SCHOOL  CERTIFICATION 


Students  admitted  to  The  Graduate  School  who  wish  to  work  toward 
certification  in  a  specific  field(s)  should  check  the  descriptions  of  certifica- 
tion programs  found  in  this  catalog  for  requirements  related  to  their  pro- 
gram(s)  of  interest.  If  a  given  certification  program  requires  completion  of 
a  master's  degree,  the  master's  degree  procedures  and  regulations  set  forth 
in  this  catalog  apply.  The  Graduate  School  does  not,  however,  certify 
students;  certification  is  processed  by  the  Dean  of  the  College  of  Education. 

Principal  Certification 

lUP  offers  a  competency-based  school  administrative  certification  pro- 
gram in  elementary  and  secondary  education.  Those  who  wish  to  pursue 
this  program  must  first  be  granted  admission  to  the  Graduate  School.  Before 


38— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


applying,  however,  potential  applicants  should  consult  with  the  director  of 
the  principal's  certification  program  (Dean's  Office,  College  of  Education, 
Stouffer  Hall). 

Graduate  Study  Beyond  the  Master's  Degree 

it  is  not  unusual  to  find  graduate  students  enrolling  in  more  courses 
than  they  need  to  meet  the  requirements  of  a  master's  degree.  Such  action 
can  be  beneficial  beyond  the  personal  satisfactions  which  accrue,  because 
the  added  studies  may  be  well  received  by  employers  whether  in  business, 
government,  or  the  school  system  in  such  matters  as  certification.  However, 
students  should  understand  that  most  graduate  schools  have  residency  re- 
quirements at  the  doctoral  as  well  as  master's  level  and  frequently  will  ac- 
cept no  more  than  30  graduate  semester  hours  earned  elsewhere  as 
applicable  to  a  doctorate. 

Degree  Eligibility  of  lUP  Teaching  Staff 

Members  of  the  teaching  faculty  at  lUP  with  the  rank  of  Assistant  Pro- 
fessor or  above  (or  equivalent),  may  not  receive  a  graduate  degree  from 
this  institution.  This  rule  applies  also  to  any  faculty  members  employed  at 
lUP  full-time  at  the  Instructor  rank  unless  such  an  individual  is  already  an 
approved  candidate  for  a  degree  in  the  Graduate  School  of  lUP  at  the  time 
he/she  is  given  full-time  employment  as  an  Instructor.  Faculty  members  may, 
however,  register  for  work  in  The  Graduate  School  and  apply  the  credit 
toward  graduate  degrees  to  be  conferred  by  other  institutions.

Anthropology 


GRADUATE  PROGRAMS 
AND  COURSES 

ANTHROPOLOGY 


Anthropology  is  the  study  of  human  biological  and  cultural  evolution. 
The  discipline  is  organized  into  four  sub-fields:  sociocultural  anthropology, 
physical  anthropology,  linguistics  and  archaeology.  The  breadth  of  anthro- 
pology gives  the  discipline  wide  applicability  to  a  variety  of  careers  and 
lifetime  undertakings. 

Although  there  is  presently  no  graduate  degree  program  in  anthropology, 
courses  in  anthropology  are  a  component  of  the  MEd  degree  in  Social 
Science  and  may  be  used  as  electives  for  MA  degrees  in  other  programs.

MASTER  OF  ARTS  IN  ART  THERAPY 

The  Master  of  Arts  degree  in  Art  Therapy  is  designed  to  fulfill  the 
minimum  graduate  requirements  for  an  art  therapist.  Following  the  guidelines 
of  the  American  Art  Therapy  Association,  the  master's  degree  in  Art  Therapy 
at  lUP  is  designed  to  provide  the  theoretical  and  practical  art  therapy  skills 
which  are  applied  in  clinical,  education  or  rehabilitative  settings.  The  pro- 
gram is  an  interdisciplinary  one  of  art,  art  therapy,  psychology  and  related 
areas.  A  practicum  of  600  hours  under  the  supervision  of  an  art  therapist 
in  an  applicable  setting  is  required. 

in  addition  to  meeting  the  requirements  for  admission  to  the  Graduate 
School,  an  interview  with  a  portfolio  of  the  candidate's  art  work  will  be  re- 


50— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


quired  and  an  evaluation  of  the  candidate's  interests  in  therapeutic  work 
will  follow.  It  is  suggested  that  graduate  students  in  art  therapy  have  a 
background  in  human,  normal,  and  abnormal  psychology  and  have 
background  suitable  to  professional  work  in  the  field.  Upon  the  director's 
advisement  students  may  be  required  to  take  additional  undergraduate 
course  work  if  they  are  found  to  lack  proficiency  in  art  or  the  social  sciences. 
Graduate  credit  is  not  given  for  undergraduate  courses  which  may  be 
required. 

The  M.A.  in  Art  Therapy  requires  the  successful  completion  of  a

two  to  three  working  days  per  week  are  required.  The  same  number  of  hours 
may  be  provided  by  concentrating  summer  work  in  a  shortened  period  or 
by  evening  work  over  a  more  extended  period.  The  600  hours  will  be  spent 
under  qualified  supervision  in  agencies  which  may  be  in  a  locality  of  the 
student's  choice  and/or  desired  area  of  interest. 

The  Art  Therapy  Director  assists  the  student  in  securing  the  site  and 
makes  scheduled  visitations  to  evaluate  the  student's  progress,  modality 
of  treatment  and  daily  supervision,  as  well  as  to  observe  the  student  func- 
tioning as  an  Art  Therapist.  Uppermost  in  such  visitations  is  the  quality  and 
applicability  of  preparation  by  the  student  Art  Therapist.

BUSINESS 


The  College  of  Business  offers  three  separate  graduate  programs:  The 
Master  of  Business  Administration  (MBA),  the  Master  of  Education  in 
Business  (M.Ed.),  and  the  Master  of  Science  in  Business  (M.S.). 

MASTER  OF  BUSINESS  ADMINISTRATION  (MBA) 

The  Master  of  Business  Administration  program  is  intended  to  serve 
the  needs  of  both  junior  and  senior  level  business  and  industrial  executives 
seeking  additional  knowledge  and  skills  to  do  a  more  efficient  job  of  prob- 
lem solving  and  managerial  decision  making.  Also,  the  program  serves  the 
needs  of  students  seeking  advanced  training  in  business  management  prior 
to  entry  into  a  business  career.  The  program  is  offered  on  a  part-time  or 
full-time  basis. 

Core  I  of  the  program  consists  of  10  undergraduate  prerequisite  courses 
(31  s.h.)  that  provide  a  foundation  in  the  basic  concepts  and  techniques  used 
in  today's  business  world. 

Core  II  consists  of  ten  graduate  level  courses  or  thirty  semester  hours. 
Of  these,  seven  courses  are  required  in  the  functional  and  applied  areas 
of  business.  The  remaining  courses  are  electives  which  may  be  concen- 
trated in  one  functional  area,  such  as  Accounting,  Finance,  Marketing, 
Management  Information  Systems  or  Management,  by  those  students 
wishing  to  develop  an  academic  specialty  within  the  broader  field  of  business 
administration,  or  the  electives  may  be  taken  from  any  combination  of  those 
areas  or,  with  permission,  from  other  related  areas  outside  the  College  of 
Business  by  those  students  wishing  a  Business  degree  covering  a  broader 
range. 

Normally  the  student  with  an  undergraduate  degree  in  Business  Ad- 
ministration would  either  go  directly  to  the  Core  II  subjects  or  would  have 
a  minimal  number  of  Core  I  or  prerequisite  subjects  remaining. 

However,  a  student  with  no  undergraduate  background  in  Business  Ad- 
ministration would  need  to  take  most  or  all  of  the  prerequisite  classes. 
Therefore,  for  the  student  with  no  Business  Administration  background,  com- 
pleting both  Core  I  and  Core  II  will  normally  require  two  years  of  full-time 
study  to  achieve  the  MBA  degree.  For  the  student  with  a  recent  bachelor's 
degree  in  Business  Administration,  the  requirements  for  the  MBA  can  nor- 
mally be  completed  in  one  year  of  full-time  study. 

Students  who  did  not  have  all  the  Core  I  courses  as  undergraduates 
may  take  these  courses  at  lUP  or,  with  prior  permission,  at  other  accredited 
institutions.  In  some  instances,  course  credit  may  be  earned  by  examina- 
tion for  some  prerequisite  courses.  In  some  cases,  credit  may  be  given  for 
other  parallel  educational  experiences.  For  example,  there  are  certain  cor- 
porate training  programs  in  computer  languages  that  might  be  accepted  in 
lieu  of  the  introductory  undergraduate  computer  course.  Please  contact  the 
Director  of  Graduate  Studies  in  Business  for  information  concerning  the 
prerequisite  courses. 

Students  seeking  enrollment  in  the  MBA  program  or  M.S.  in  Business 
program  must  take  the  Graduate  Management  Admission  Test  (GMAT) 
before  being  admitted  to  the  program.  Information  about  the  GMAT  can  be 
obtained  from  the  Educational  Testing  Services,  Princeton,  NJ  08540  or  from 
the  lUP  Academic  Services  and  Testing  Center  (Telephone  412-357-3050).

CHEMISTRY 


The  Chemistry  Department  offers  three  different  degree  programs  on 
the  master's  level:  the  Master  of  Education,  Master  of  Science,  and  the  Mas- 
ter of  Arts  degrees  in  chemistry. 

The  Master  of  Education  program  is  designed  for  the  secondary  school 
teacher,  affording  the  teacher  the  opportunity  to  gain  more  knowledge  of 
chemistry  and  keep  abreast  of  a  rapidly  changing  field.  The  major  empha- 
sis is  on  subject  matter.  The  student  may  enroll  on  either  a  full-  or  part-time 
basis. 

The  Master  of  Science  degree  is  for  the  chemist  who  intends  to  pursue 
further  graduate  work  leading  to  a  PhD  or  who  intends  to  work  as  a  profes- 
sional chemist  and  desires  to  become  more  competent  in  chemistry.  This 
degree  is  research  oriented  and  successful  completion  of  an  experimental 
thesis  is  required.  Also  two  consecutive  semesters  of  residency  are  required. 

The  Master  of  Arts  degree  is  designed  to  meet  the  needs  of  the  chem- 
ist who  is  currently  a  full-time  employee  of  the  chemical  or  academic  insti- 
tution and  who  wishes  strengthening  in  those  areas  relevant  to  the 
professional  position.  The  emphasis  here  is  on  course  work. 

Four  core  courses,  one  in  each  of  the  areas  of  inorganic,  organic,  ana- 
lytical, and  physical  chemistry,  are  required  in  the  MS  and  MA  programs.* 
Beyond  this  point  the  programs  separate  with  the  MS  and  MA  student  taking 
more  specialized  work  in  chemistry  along  with  an  experimental  research

problem.  The  MEd  candidate  will  take  broadening  courses  which  increase 
the  effectiveness  of  a  teacher.  The  MA  candidate  will  take  more  specialized 
work  in  chemistry  and  will  be  encouraged  to  take  courses  outside  the 
sciences  if  they  are  relevant  to  the  particular  area  of  employement. 

General  Admissions  Requirements— Students  should  have  completed 
one  year  each  of  general  chemistry,  analytical  chemistry,  organic  chemis- 
try, physical  chemistry,*  *  general  physics,  and  calculus.  Students  wishing 
to  specialize  in  biochemistry  should  also  have  had  an  undergraduate  course 
in  biochemistry.  Students  deficient  in  the  above  areas  of  study  may  also 
be  admitted  provided  these  deficiencies  are  made  up  concurrently  with  the 
student's  graduate  studies. 

The  general  requirements  for  admission  to  candidacy  for  a  master's  de- 
gree are  discussed  on  page       of  the  bulletin. 

*An  exception  to  this  is  afforded  the  student  wishing  to  specialize  in 
biochemistry. 
*  *Only  one  semester  of  physical  chemistry  is  required  for  education  majors.

Certification  as  an  Instructional  Media  Specialist 

The  specialist  certificate  in  Instructional  Media  may  be  awarded  to  stu- 
dents who  hold  at  least  a  Pennsylvania  Level  1  or  equivalent  certificate  valid 
for  elementary  or  secondary  education  and  who  complete  24  semester  hours 
of  graduate  work  in  the  curriculum  of  Communications  Media  and  related 
subjects.  With  the  approval  of  an  advisor,  each  student  will  select  a  balance 
of  courses  from  the  three  concentration  Blocks  described  earlier;  however, 
CM  503,  615,  630,  and  660  must  be  included  in  the  courses  selected.  Ap- 
plication for  the  certificate  is  made  through  the  Communications  Media 
Department  to  the  Pennsylvania  Department  of  Public  Instruction. 

By  careful  structuring  of  their  program,  it  is  possible  for  students  to  ob- 
tain both  the  MEd  degree  and  the  Instructional  Media  Specialist  Certifica- 
tion concurrently.  Usually  this  will  require  slightly  more  than  the  30  semester 
hours  of  minimum  credits  required  for  the  MEd  but  students  often  find  it 
to  their  advantage  to  fulfill  the  requirements  for  both  programs. 

Students  not  in  the  educational  profession  (i.e..  Business  or  Industry) 
and  who  otherwise  meet  the  admission  requirements  of  the  Graduate  School 
may  pursue  the  program  for  Instructional  Media  Specialist  and  upon  com- 
pletion of  the  requirements  may  be  granted  a  special  Certificate  of  Profi- 
ciency in  Instructional  Media  by  the  University. 

Graduate  School  admission  does  not  automatically  ensure  acceptance 
into  the  certificate  program.  Successful  applicants  will  present  evidence  of 
(1)  the  intellectual  ability  to  do  acceptable  graduate  work;  (2)  satisfactory 
scores  on  the  GRE;  and  (3)  the  requisite  personal  qualifications  of  charac- 
ter, health,  and  professional  background.  The  departmental  graduate  faculty 
will  make  the  necessary  determinations.

ENGLISH 


A  candidate  for  a  master's  degree  in  English  may  choose  a  program 
leading  to  either  the  Master  of  Education  or  the  Master  of  Arts.  The  choice 
will  depend  on  the  background  of  the  candidate  and  his/her  purpose  of  pur- 
suing graduate  study.  Both  programs  share  a  common  aim  of  increasing 
the  candidate's  knowledge  of  English  language  and  literature  and  introducing 
the  student  to  the  discipline  of  advanced  study.  In  addition,  the  Master  of 
Education  degree  aims  at  preparing  teachers  for  public  schools. 

After  a  student  is  admitted  to  The  Graduate  school,  the  Director  of 
Graduate  Studies  will  consult  with  him  or  her  about  the  scheduling  of  courses. 
The  student  should  apply  for  the  candidacy  before  12  credits  have  been 
earned. 

The  writing  of  a  thesis  is  optional  for  both  the  MA  and  MEd  degree. 
The  English  department  values  writing  and  research;  however,  a  candidate's 
decision  concerning  the  thesis  should  be  made  on  the  basis  of  his/her  pur- 
poses in  obtaining  the  degree  and  the  extent  to  which  training  in  research 
will  enhance  both  professional  and  personal  goals.  Under  special  circum- 
stances and  upon  request  from  The  Graduate  School,  a  thesis  may  be  writ- 
ten for  additional  credit  after  the  student  has  already  completed  the  master's 
degree  without  a  thesis. 

MASTER  OF  ARTS  IN  ENGLISH 

The  MA  degree  either  with  or  without  a  thesis  requires  a  minimum  of 
30  s.h.  beyond  the  bachelor's  degree.  The  candidate  who  chooses  not  to 
write  a  thesis  will  take  all  30  s.h.  in  course  work.  Depending  upon  the  nature 
of  the  thesis,  the  candidate  who  chooses  to  do  research  will  take  either  three 
or  six  s.h.  of  the  minimum  30  as  thesis  and  the  remainder  in  course  work. 

Required  of  all  MA  candidates  are  (1)  EN  674  and  (2)  proficiency  in  a 
single  language  in  addition  to  English.  The  language  requirement  may  be 
satisfied  by  acceptable  undergraduate  credit  of  12  hours,  by  examination 
through  the  Foreign  Languages  Department  at  lUP,  or  by  the  Graduate 
School  Foreign  Language  Test  through  the  Educational  Testing  Service, 
Princeton. 

The  MA  candidate  may  apply  a  maximum  of  six  s.h.  in  a  related  field 
(e.g.  history,  philosophy,  psychology)  toward  satisfying  total  course  require- 
ments. All  hours  remaining  from  the  minimum  30  hours  requirement  will  be 
satisfied  by  courses  listed  in  the  catalog  EN  529  through  EN  699. 

MASTER  OF  EDUCATION  IN  ENGLISH 

The  candidate  for  the  MEd  has  the  same  thesis  option  as  the  candidate 
for  the  MA.  The  MEd  candidate  must  satisfy  the  following  requirements:  (1 )  A 
Pennsylvania  Teacher's  Certificate  in  English  or  its  equivalent  from  another 
state  (2)  Three  s.h.  in  Humanistic  Studies:  any  course  from  FE  611,  612, 
613,  514  (3)  Three  s.h.  in  Behavioral  Studies:  EP  604,  EP  573.  EP  576, 
EP  578,  EP  580,  CE  629,  CE  639,  or  EX  631  (4)  Three  hours  in  Research: 
GR  614  (5)  Six  hours  Specialization  Core:  EN  603  and  EN  693;  and  (6)  Three 
hours  in  bibliographical  methods:  EN  674. 


106— Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 


Depending  upon  choice  of  thesis  options,  the  candidate  will  complete 
the  30  hour  minimum  requirement  by  taking  from  six  to  12  hours  of  elec- 
tives,  chosen  from  courses  EN  529  through  EN  699. 

There  is  no  foreign  language  requirement  for  the  MEd.

DOCTOR  OF  PHILOSOPHY  PROGRAMS 

There  are  two  distinct  doctoral  programs  in  English,  one  in  English  and 
American  literature,  and  the  other  in  Rhetoric/Linguistics.  Both  programs 
lead  to  a  Doctor  of  Philosophy  in  English. 

I.  Doctor  of  Philosophy  in  English  and  American  Literature 

The  program  leading  to  the  Doctor  of  Philosophy  in  English  and 
American  literature  is  designed  for  those  who  wish  to  teach  at  the  college 
or  university  level.  As  such,  this  plan  of  study  places  strong  emphasis  upon 
the  humanistic  tradition  in  literature,  for  the  values  expressed  therein  are 
felt  to  be  the  essential  concern  of  a  liberal  arts  education.  A  candidate  for 
this  degree  is  expected  to  acquire  a  broad  knowledge  in  limited  areas  of 
study  and  to  show  through  the  completion  of  an  acceptable  dissertation  the 
ability  to  conduct  an  independent  investigation  of  a  topic  approved  by  the 
department.  To  become  a  candidate  the  applicant  must  meet  all  The 
Graduate  School  requirements  for  candidacy,  as  well  as  the  special  re- 
quirements of  the  English  department.  Admission  to  course  work  beyond 
the  master's  degree  does  not  constitute  admission  to  candidacy  for  the  PhD 
program.  No  specific  number  of  course  credits  entitles  a  student  to  the 
degree,  but  a  minimum  of  60  semester  hours  of  credit,  exclusive  of  research 
credits,  must  be  earned  beyond  the  bachelor's  degree.  Applications  for  can- 
didacy will  be  reviewed  by  a  departmental  committee  after  nine  hours  of 
graduate  credit  have  been  earned  beyond  the  master's  degree  and  before 
15  hours  have  been  completed.  In  determining  whether  or  not  an  applicant 
should  be  accepted  as  a  candidate  for  the  degree  of  Doctor  of  Philosophy, 
an  Advisory  Committee  will  consider  the  applicant's  scores  on  the  Graduate 
Record  Examination,  performance  in  course  work,  and  whenever  applicable, 
performance  as  a  teaching-intern. 

On  application  for  candidacy,  the  candidate  will  be  assigned  to  an  Ad- 
visory Committee  who  will  help  the  candidate  prepare  a  plan  of  study  for 
a  comprehensive  examination,  both  written  and  oral,  which  will  be  taken 
on  the  recommendation  of  the  Advisory  Committee  near  the  end  of  course 
requirements  and  before  registering  for  EN  950  dissertation  credits. 

The  linguistic  requirement  for  PhD  candidates,  which  must  be  completed 
before  the  comprehensive  examinations,  may  be  satisfied  by  one  of  the 
following  comparative  study  options:  (1)  six  graduate  credits  in  theoretical 
or  applied  linguistics;  (2)  six  graduate  credits  in  computer  languages;  (3) 
foreign  language  proficiency  as  measured  either  by  ETA  or  Foreign 
Language  Department  examinations.  The  Student's  Advisory  Committee  will 
attempt  to  suit  the  language  study  to  the  student's  needs  as  a  teacher  and 


Programs  and  Courses  -  107 
English 


researcher.  Sole  authority  in  determining  foreign  language  proficiency  rests 
with  the  Advisory  Committee. 

On  approval  of  the  Advisory  Committee,  a  candidate  may  take  as  many 
as  nine  graduate  hours  of  course  work  in  a  minor  field  in  support  of  major 
research  interest. 

Although  there  are  specific  requirements  for  the  degree,  the  professional 
and  educational  background  of  a  number  of  students  will  make  it  necessary 
to  waive  certain  requirements  to  avoid  needless  duplication.  Decisions  to 
waive  requirements  will  be  made  by  the  student's  Advisory  Committee. 

Candidates  must  demonstrate  the  capacity  to  teach  effectively,  either 
in  the  departmental  teaching-internship  program,  or  through  other  acceptable 
teaching  experience.  English  is  required  of  all  candidates. 

As  this  catalog  is  being  prepared,  the  PhD  program  in  English  and 
American  literature  is  undergoing  revisions.  Both  requirements  and  course 
offerings  can  be  expected  to  change.  A  complete  description  can  be  ob- 
tained from  the  English  Department  or  from  the  Graduate  School. 

II.  Doctor  of  Philosophy  in  Rhetoric  and  Linguistics 

The  program  which  leads  to  the  Doctor  of  Philosophy  in  English  is 
designed  for  teaching  English  in  the  community  college  or  the  four-year  col- 
lege. The  pre-service  candidate  for  this  degree  is  expected  to  acquire  a 
thorough  understanding  of  the  community  college  as  an  institution  and  to 
demonstrate,  largely  through  a  semester's  internship  at  a  community  col- 
lege, the  ability  to  teach  effectively. 

The  in-service  candidate  for  this  degree  may  have  the  internship  waived 
after  a  description  and  evaluation  of  his/her  teaching  experiences  have  been 
accepted. 

Upon  admission  to  the  program,  the  candidate  will  be  assigned  to  a 
Program/Evaluation  Committee  which  will,  in  consultation  with  the  candidate, 
work  out  a  program  of  study.  The  Program/Evaluation  Committee  will  review 
also  the  candidate's  application  for  candidacy,  which  must  be  submitted  after 
nine  hours  of  graduate  credit  have  been  earned  and  before  15  hours  have 
been  completed.  Another  function  of  the  Program/Evaluation  Committee  will 
be  to  prepare  a  comprehensive  examination,  written  and  oral,  for  each 
candidate. 

Although  there  are  some  general  course  and  research  requirements 
for  this  degree,  they  may  be  waived  by  the  student's  Program/Evaluation 
Committee  if  they  believe  the  student  has  already  acquired  the  information 
or  specific  competencies  which  these  courses  are  designed  to  communicate 
or  develop.  These  general  course  requirements  are  as  follows:  EN  689, 
EN  692,  EN  631 ,  EN  603,  a  course  in  the  teaching  of  literature,  nine  hours 
of  elective  credits  in  psychology,  sociology,  communications  media,  etc.; 
a  dissertation  related  to  Rhetoric  and  Linguistics;  a  semester's  internship 
at  a  community  college. 

As  this  catalog  is  being  prepared,  the  program  is  undergoing  revision 
of  requirements  and  of  course  offerings.  Notable  is  the  ESL  component  of 
this  program  which  is  fully  in  place  and  currently  offered  on  a  regular  basis. 
A  complete  description  of  all  revisions  can  be  obtained  from  the  English 
Department  or  from  the  Graduate  School.

FOUNDATIONS  OF  EDUCATION 


The  Foundations  of  Education  Department  seeks  to  expose  its  students 
to  a  systematic  inquiry  into  educational  theories  and  practices  through  a 
philosophical,  sociological,  historical,  and  comparative  analysis.  Founda- 
tions study  generates  criteria  for  judgment  and  helps  to  formulate  a  Gestalt 
of  various  subjects.  It  also  helps  to  develop  an  integral  cross  sectional  view 
of  education,  while  augmenting  the  construction,  clarification,  and  evalua- 
tion of  educational  goals  necessary  for  development  of  effective  methods

GEOGRAPHY  AND  REGIONAL  PLANNING 

lUP's  Department  of  Geography  and  Regional  Planning  offers  graduate 
programs  leading  to  the  degrees  of  Master  of  Arts,  Master  of  Science,  and 
Master  of  Education.  The  programs  are  designed  to  prepare  students  for 
a  variety  of  careers  as  geographers  in  business,  government,  research  and 
planning  organizations,  and  teaching;  or  for  entry  to  a  doctoral  program  at 
another  university.  Emphasis  is  placed  upon  developing  professional  com- 
petence in  the  tools,  substance,  methodology,  and  theory  of  geography. 

Graduates  of  the  program  are  employed  by  the  state  and  federal  govern- 
ment, city,  county  and  regional  planning  commissions,  private  consultant 
firms,  business  and  industry,  and  secondary  schools,  colleges  and  univer- 
sities. Knowledge  of  spatial  location  patterns  and  processes  and  environmen- 
tal concerns;  the  planning  field,  its  organization,  and  operation;  and  geo- 
graphic and  cartographic  skills,  including  computer  application  is  of  value 
to  the  graduate  in  the  job  search. 

Students  usually  hold  a  bachelor's  degree  in  geography  or  one  of  the 
social  sciences.  Persons  with  degrees  in  education,  science  or  business 
find  a  degree  in  geography  of  value. 

Geography  graduate  students  at  lUP  may  pursue  traditional  geographic 
themes  of  study  or  research  such  as  economic-urban  and  cultural-historical 
geography.  The  Department  also  offers  faculty  strength  in  regional  develop- 
ment and  planning,  and  in  cartography/remote  sensing/geographic  infor- 
mation systems.  Thus,  the  student  may  choose  between  two  plans.  The  MA 
student  may  design  his  or  her  own  program  in  consultation  with  a  faculty 
advisor.  The  MS  program  requires  that  the  student  complete  a  twelve-credit 
concentration  in  regional  development,  planning,  and  cartography.  In  either 
program  selected  courses  in  related  fields  may  be  applied  toward  a  degree. 
All  graduate  degree  programs  require  a  minimum  of  30  semester  hours  of 
credit  for  the  thesis  option,  or  at  least  36  hours  for  the  non-thesis  option. 
These  include  three  core  courses:  GE  511 ,  GE  610  and  GE  612.  Graduate 
students  have  the  option  to  incorporate  an  internship  as  a  part  of  either  the 
MA  or  the  MS  program.

and  research,  and  a  functional  focus  on  either  the  teaching  of  nursing  or 
the  administration  of  nursing  services.  The  program  is  designed  to  prepare 
graduates  to  function  as  teachers,  administrators,  or  practitioners  of  family 
nursing. 

In  addition  to  meeting  the  requirements  for  admission  to  the  Graduate

nursing  work  experience,  and  have  submitted  letters  of  recommendation 
from  three  individuals  attesting  to  the  student's  nursing  competency  and 
potential  for  graduate  study.  For  admission  to  degree  candidacy,  the  stu- 
dent must  have  completed  at  least  six  hours  of  graduate  Nursing  courses, 
have  achieved  satisfactory  scores  on  the  Graduate  Record  Examination,

administration  requires  a  practicum;  practicum  sites  are  secured  by  graduate 
faculty  and  practice  is  supervised  by  graduate  faculty.  As  a  terminating  ac-

PHYSICS 

The  graduate  program  in  physics  offers  a  choice  of  three  degrees:  a 
Master  of  Education,  a  Master  of  Arts,  and  a  Master  of  Science.  The  stu- 
dent obtaining  a  nnaster's  degree  for  fulfillment  of  certification  requirements 
usually  selects  either  the  Master  of  Education  Degree  or  the  Master  of  Arts 
Degree.  The  student  obtaining  a  master's  degree  for  additional  preparation 
for  research,  an  industrial  position,  or  further  graduate  work  will  usually  se- 
lect the  Master  of  Science  Degree.

able, the  student  is  required  to  have  the  consent  of  his/her  department  ad- 
viser before  selecting  a  course  or  initiating  a  research  project.  Adviser 
assignments  are  made  as  soon  as  the  acceptance  of  a  graduate  student 
reaches  the  physics  department.  The  graduate  student  should  arrange 
appointments  with  his/her  adviser.  The  flexibility  of  the  program  allows  the

MASTER  OF  ARTS  IN  PHYSICS 

This  program  is  the  most  flexible  of  the  three  graduate  degree  programs 
offered  by  the  Physics  Department.  Each  student's  program  is  designed  to 
meet  his  or  her  individual  needs  by  the  student  and  adviser  working  together. 

The  educational  goals  of  students  in  many  categories  can  be  met  while 
the  student  is  working  to  attain  his/her  degree.  Several  examples  of  the  cat- 
egory of  student  who  may  select  this  degree  program  are: 

1.  The  student  whose  undergraduate  training  is  in  Physics  Education, 
Physical  Science  Education,  or  Science  Education  with  a  strong 
professional  education  component.  This  student  may  need  more  con- 
tent than  professional  education.  In  this  program  the  student  may, 
with  the  concurrence  of  his/her  adviser,  enroll  in  exactly  that  ratio 
of  content  courses  to  professional  education  courses  which  are  neces- 
sary to  attain  his/her  goals. 

2.  The  student  who  holds  a  teaching  certificate  in  a  field  other  than  phys- 
ics but  is  a  secondary  school  physics  teacher.  These  students  often 
require  formal  coursework  in  a  number  of  areas  of  physics  in  order 
to  have  physics  added  to  their  certificate.  This  is  normally  a  require- 
ment of  their  school  district  and/or  the  Commonwealth.  This  program 
allows  them  to  meet  this  requirement  while  working  toward  a  degree. 

3.  The  student  who  wishes  to  enroll  in  a  cooperative  program  includ- 
ing those  programs  with  internship  components.  Students  may  earn 
8-15  s.h.  during  a  semester  while  interning  under  one  of  the  special 
programs  instituted  by  the  University. 

SUBJECT  MATTER  -  15  s.h.  minimum. 

Required  coursework  in  Physics  is  to  be  selected  from  the  Graduate 
Physics  courses  whose  course  number  is  510  or  greater.  This  selection  must 
have  the  prior  approval  of  the  student's  academic  adviser  and  a  notation 
of  such  approval  is  to  appear  in  the  student's  folder. 

ELECTIVES  -  11  to  18  s.h. 

The  student  may  complete  the  requirements  for  an  MA  by  selecting, 
with  the  approval  of  his/her  adviser,  from  among  the  offerings  of  The  Gradu- 
ate School.  The  number  of  credits  selected  for  electives  depends  upon  the 
option  exercised  under  Research  and  Thesis. 

RESEARCH  AND  THESIS  OPTION 

Each  Master  of  Arts  student  must  complete  degree  requirements  in  one 
of  the  following  two  ways: 

A.  Undertake  an  individual  research  problem  and  complete  an  accept-

able  thesis.  For  this  option  the  student  must  schedule  PY  600  for 
two  s.h.  and  PY  850  for  at  least  two  s.h.  If  he/she  selects  this  option 
he/she  will  have  completed  a  minimum  of  30  s.h.  including  these 
two  courses  for  the  degree. 
B.  Decide,  with  the  approval  of  his/her  academic  adviser,  that  he/she 
does  not  wish  to  undertake  such  a  research  problem.  If  this  option 
is  exercised,  the  student  will  not  do  a  thesis  but  must  complete  a 
minimum  of  33  s.h.  of  coursework.

SOCIOLOGY 


Sociology  is  the  study  of  society  and  human  social  relationships.  Ad- 
vanced training  in  sociology  should  enable  the  student  to  think  critically  and 
reflectively  about  the  social  world  and  to  be  able  to  use  the  knowledge  ac- 
quired in  a  variety  of  ways:  Sociology  is  relevant  to  a  number  of  careers. 
Many  students  plan  to  affiliate  themselves  with  professional  social  service, 
governmental,  or  research  organizations,  while  other  students  pursue  aca- 
demic sociological  careers.  The  MA  program  in  Sociology  is  designed  to 
serve  these  various  needs  and  interests  of  students. 

MASTER  OF  ARTS  IN  SOCIOLOGY 

In  addition  to  graduate  school  admission  requirements,  the  student 
should  have  completed  at  least  12  hours  of  undergraduate  sociology  courses 
with  an  average  grade  of  B  or  better.  In  individual  cases  the  department 
may  allow  a  promising  student  to  enter  the  program  with  deficiencies.  Such 
deficiencies  must  be  made  up  by  taking  specific  courses  at  the  discretion 
of  the  department  in  addition  to  the  required  total  number  of  course  hours. 

All  MA  students  are  required  to  complete  the  two  basic  core  require- 
ments: SO  664  Research  Seminar  in  Sociology,  and  SO  667  Contemporary 
Sociological  Theory.  Beyond  the  completion  of  these  two  courses,  the  MA 
in  Sociology  allows  the  student  two  options: 

Thesis  Option:  In  addition  to  the  two  core  courses,  students  will  com- 
plete an  additional  1 8  s.h.  of  coursework  (1 2  s.h.  of  which  must  be  in  sociol- 
ogy) and  a  six  s.h.  thesis  (SO  850). 

Non-Thesis  Option:  In  addition  to  the  two  core  courses,  students  will 
complete  an  additional  30  s.h.  of  coursework  (21  s.h.  of  which  must  be  in 
sociology). 

Students  planning  further  academic  work  in  sociology  may  find  the  thesis 
option  most  helpful,  while  those  going  on  to  community-related  work  might 
find  the  non-thesis  option  most  beneficial.  Specific  programs  of  study  are 
planned  by  student  and  assigned  faculty  adviser  when  the  student  enters 
the  program.  Students  may  later  alter  their  program  of  studies  in  consulta- 
tion with  their  advisers.  Such  flexibility  in  structuring  the  curriculum,  we  be- 
lieve, will  best  serve  students. 

No  more  than  one-third  of  a  student's  work  toward  the  MA  may  be  in 
dual-level  (500)  courses.  Therefore,  those  selecting  the  thesis  option  are 
limited  to  nine  s.h.  of  dual-level  coursework,  while  those  selecting  the  non- 
thesis  option  will  be  permitted  no  more  than  12  s.h.  of  dual-level  course- 
work.  Furthermore,  students  who  enrolled  for  dual-level  courses  while  under- 
graduates at  lUP  may  not  repeat  the  same  courses  for  credit  as  graduate 
students.
